Yelp.com Review - by Jon S.

4.0 of 5 stars. Great "diner food" and a piece of nostalgia. Built in the 1950's and perhaps best known for its fried chicken, which is freshly brought in each day (by way of the Cook Inlet?) and pan fried intead of...

Yelp.com Review - by Amanda C.

5.0 of 5 stars. I vacillate between 4 or 5 stars when thinking of Lucky Wishbone, but I'm going to give it a 5.First off, the fried chicken here is excellent- possibly the best in the world. It's not good for a small...

Yelp.com Review - by John K.

4.0 of 5 stars. The Lucky Wishbone does diner food like some of the best, exceeding the expectations. The portions are large and the price is reasonable. I have only had lunch there and is always very good.

Lucky Wishbone by scott b. at InsiderPages

A downtown Anchorage tradition. Been in business for over 50 years. Excellent service and menu selections. Does not look like much from the outside but don't let that fool you. Well worth the stop.

Yelp.com Review - by agnes b.

4.0 of 5 stars. I'm no longer a meat eater but I consumed many, many pieces of fried chicken here as a child. I love the old school diner atmosphere, complete with lots of families and cops, and all the vintage...

Yelp.com Review - by Michael G.

3.0 of 5 stars. Overpriced, mediocre food. Sadly, Anchorage has little competition of quality diners and restaurants other than fast food. I go to the Bone a couple times a year for a fix of a decent malt (a large...
